Chen Wei's calm expression instantly became gloomy when he saw his younger brother was so sorrowful, he said with a low voice to Ye Ting, "Patriarch Ye, since you were once considered to be the father-in-law of my younger brother, I won't make it difficult for you…"
"But you must hand Duan Ling Tian over! Today, I, Chen Wei, will not only seek justice for my younger brother and Chen Clan, I'll also seek justice for my Five Element Sect's Wood Peak!" Chen Wei's words were spoken clearly with a voice that was like a thunderclap.
As he finished speaking, his face was suffused with ghastly rage.
He was very rarely enraged, but when he saw his younger brother in such pain today and coupled with someone impersonating a disciple of his Five Element Sect's Wood Peak, he was completely enraged!
Seek justice for the Five Element Sect?
Ye Ting's pupils constricted when he heard Chen Wei, and the other Ye Clan elders and disciples had astounded expressions as well.
How did Duan Ling Tian get related to the Five Element Sect?
Moreover, he seems to have committed something that caused indignation and discontent in the Five Element Sect?
"Eldest Young Master Chen, have you mistaken something? How did Brother Duan become related to your Five Element Sect?" Ye Ting asked with a frown. He kept having the feeling that something was amiss, yet he didn't know how to describe this feeling.
"Hmph! Patriarch Ye, looks like you've really been scared sh*tless by him." Right at this moment, Chen An shouted fiercely with a low voice. "Could it be that he didn't tell you he's a disciple of the Five Element Sect's Wood Peak? Today, my older brother is representing the Five Element Sect's Wood Peak to teach him a lesson!"
Disciple of the Five Element Sect's Wood Peak?
Ye Ting was stunned as he really didn't know that Duan Ling Tian was a disciple of the Five Element Sect, and he instantly looked at a nearby Ye Clan disciple and said, "You, go invite Young Master Duan over."
"Yes." The Ye Clan disciple replied respectfully before leaving.
When Chen Wei saw Ye Ting ask someone to call Duan Ling Tian over, he didn't say anything further and closed his eyes to meditate while waiting calmly.
Chen An who stood by Chen Wei's side had a complacent expression.
"Duan Ling Tian, let me see how you're struck with misfortune!" The corners of Chen An's mouth was suffused with a cold smile as he cursed in his heart.
In a quiet little courtyard in the Ye Clan, Duan Ling Tian sat silently before a stone table as he drank tea, and his other hand held an azure colored fragment at all times.
"I've finally comprehended third level Intermediate Wind Concept." Duan Ling Tian glanced at the Wind Concept Fragment in his hand as he revealed a satisfied smile, and at the same time, he raised his tea cup up to take a sip, causing a fragrant tea to bloom within his mouth.
"Big Brother Duan!" Suddenly, the sound of a door opening resounded out, and then a beautiful figure walked out from a room on the right of the little courtyard. It was precisely Ye Xuan who was in closed door cultivation for a few days.
At this moment, Ye Xuan's face was covered in joy as she said delightedly, "Big Brother Duan, the medicinal pill you gave me is too miraculous. Only a few days have passed, yet my cultivation has once again recovered to the seventh level of the Nascent Soul Stage!"
Ye Xuan had discarded her Origin Energy a few days ago and started cultivating the cultivation method Duan Ling Tian had given her.
During this period of time, she'd consumed a few medicinal pills Duan Ling Tian gave her.
Those medicinal pills were precisely pills that were capable of absorbing and storing Ye Xuan's dispersed Origin Energy, and after Ye Xuan cultivated the new cultivation method, the medicinal pills would return the stored Origin Energy to Ye Xuan.
During these few days of time, Ye Xuan had completely reclaimed the Origin Energy within the medicinal pills, and she was even a step away from breaking through to the eighth level of the Nascent Soul Stage!
"Little Xuan, even though those medicinal pills are miraculous, yet they're insufficient to allow you to recover your cultivation in such a short period of time… Could it be that you didn't notice during these past few days that the speed you absorbed the Origin Energy in the medicinal pills had become faster?" Duan Ling Tian shook his head and then asked with a smile.
"It has become faster. But isn't it because the Origin Energy in the medicinal pill was mine to begin with?" Ye Xuan asked curiously.
She didn't know much about that type of medicinal pill, and she only knew that it was capable of absorbing her dispersed Origin Energy before allowing her to reclaim the Origin Energy by cultivating.
"You little girl… You've already completely absorbed the Origin Energy in those medicinal pills, try and absorb the spirit energy of the heavens and the earth contained within Origin Stones to cultivate." Duan Ling Tian laughed bitterly. He originally thought that after this little girl came out from closed door cultivation, she would be delighted by the natural talent she possessed now, yet she unexpectedly seemed to have not noticed anything.
Ye Xuan nodded and sat before the store table before taking out a low grade Origin Stone and starting to cultivate.
After the time for over ten breaths, Ye Xuan opened her eyes, and her beautiful face was filled with astonishment.
"Big… Big Brother Duan, why do I feel as if the speed I absorb the spirit energy of the heavens and the earth seems to be a few tens of times faster than before? Even though it isn't as swift as when I absorbed the Origin Energy that belonged to me in those medicinal pills, yet it isn't much slower." Ye Xuan spoke in a slight daze.
"Silly girl." Duan Ling Tian shook his head. "You wouldn't have forgotten what I told you a few days ago, right? Did you really think the cleansing of impurities I did for you was just talk?"
According to his observation, even though Ye Xuan's current natural talent was inferior to his natural talent that was at the limit after consuming the 10,000 year Stalactite Milk, yet it wasn't much inferior.
"Cleansing of impurities!" Ye Xuan recalled what Duan Ling Tian had told her a few days ago, and at that time, she didn't believe Duan Ling Tian when he said that her current natural talent wasn't the same as before.
Now the facts were laid before her eyes, and she had to believe it.
"Big Brother Duan, you… You've really improved my natural talent?" Ye Xuan looked at Duan Ling Tian, and her beautiful face was filled with excitement.
Duan Ling Tian laughed bitterly. "You little girl, you're still doubting your Big Brother Duan now? Could it be that I look like a fraud?"
"Big Brother Duan, I didn't mean it that way…" Ye Xuan's beautiful face flushed red instantly when she heard Duan Ling Tian, and then explained hurriedly. "I'm just… I'm just too surprised! Even though I knew that some precious materials in Cloud Continent are capable of improving a martial artist's natural talent, yet I've never heard of someone being capable of increasing the natural talent of another."
"Now you know how formidable your Big Brother Duan is, right?" said Duan Ling Tian with a smile.
"Yes, Big Brother Duan is the most formidable." Ye Xuan nodded her head like a chick pecking on grains, and then her face went red as she stared fixedly at Duan Ling Tian.
"What? Is there something on my face?" Duan Ling Tian felt uneasy when being stared at Ye Xuan like this, and he couldn't help but ask.
Kiss!
Right when Duan Ling Tian raised his hand and intended to touch his face, Ye Xuan came closer and kissed Duan Ling Tian on the cheek like a surprise attack.
When Duan Ling Tian was dumbstruck, Ye Xuan had already ran back to her room with a red face, and she closed her room's door with a 'bang' as her voice sounded out. "Big Brother Duan, thank you! I'll cultivate properly."
No sound escaped her room after she finished speaking. Obviously, after she found out that she possessed an extraordinary natural talent now, she started cultivating impatiently.
"This little girl." Duan Ling Tian shook his head and smiled after being struck by Ye Xuan's surprise attack.
"If I have the chance in the future, I'll bring Little Xuan to go see Father and Mother and make them take her as their foster daughter. Then she'll really be my younger sister." Duan Ling Tian thought in his heart as a warm smile suffused his face.
"Young Master Duan!" Right at this moment, a respectful and urgent voice sounded out from outside the courtyard.
"Hmm?" Duan Ling Tian frowned. He discerned the urgency in the voice from outside, so he didn't dare dally and walked out directly.
Only now did he notice that a Ye Clan disciple was standing there with an anxious expression.
"What happened?" Duan Ling Tian asked curiously. He didn't know why this Ye Clan disciple was so anxious, and he seemed as if he was rushing to go get reincarnated.
"Young Master Duan, quickly go over to take a look… Then Chen Clan's Eldest Young Master and Second Young Master have come, and they seem to have come for the sake of the matter of you and the Patriarch breaking off the engagement with the Chen Clan." The Ye Clan disciple spoke hurriedly.
"The Chen Clan's Eldest Young Master? Chen Wei?" Duan Ling Tian recalled that Ye Xuan had mentioned the Chen Clan's Eldest Young Master who'd joined the Five Element Sect to him, and he couldn't help but ask.
"Yes." The Ye Clan disciple nodded.
"Where are they? Lead the way," said Duan Ling Tian. His expression remained calm from the beginning until the end and seemed as if he wasn't the slightest bit worried that Chen Wei would be able to do anything to him.
The Ye Clan disciple lead the way ahead and Duan Ling Tian followed from behind.
"Didn't she say that the Chen Clan's Eldest Young Master is a reasonable person?" Duan Ling Tian frowned. He still remembered Ye Xuan's evaluation of Chen Wei. According to Ye Xuan, Chen Wei was an upright person and was like a completely different person when compared to his younger brother, Chen An.
But if Chen Wei was really such a reasonable person, then it was logically impossible that he would come with Chen An to the Ye Clan to look for trouble with him.
"No matter what, I'll go over and take a look first… I was just thinking about how to come into contact with the members of the Five Element Sect, yet I never imagined that Chen Wei would come looking for me." Duan Ling Tian followed behind the Ye Clan disciple and moved through the Ye Clan Estate to arrive at the Audience Hall not long after.
Meanwhile, Duan Ling Tian noticed a group of people within the Audience Hall.
"Young Master Duan has arrived!" The Ye Clan disciple that led the way before Duan Ling Tian shouted out in a loud voice.
Instantly, the Ye Clan disciples in ahead respectfully opened up a path.
"Young Master Duan!"
"Young Master Duan!"
…
The numerous Ye Clan disciples bowed respectfully and reverently towards Duan Ling Tian who walked over. During this period of time, the deeds of the violet clothed young man before them had practically spread throughout the entire Driftcloud Town.
He'd successively defeated the Chen Clan's Patriarch and Supreme Elder by himself, and he assisted the Ye Clan to break off the absurd marriage agreement with the Chen Clan.
Because of his matter, they who were Ye Clan disciples noticed bystanders from all around looking at them with respectful gazes when they left the clan during these past few days, and it allowed their vanity to obtain sufficient satisfaction.
They knew that all of this was given to them by the violet clothed young man before them, and if it wasn't for this violet clothed young man, no one would respect them like that.
"Mmm." Duan Ling Tian lightly smiled and nodded in reply to all the group of fervent Ye Clan disciples.
Instantly, the Ye Clan disciples revealed brilliant smiles and exclaimed with admiration. "Not only is Young Master Duan's strength formidable, he's so modest as well. It's truly difficult to come by."
When he saw Duan Ling Tian receive such respect from the Ye Clan disciples, Chen An's expression completely darkened, and he looked at the nearby Ye Ting and ridiculed. "Patriarch Ye, I think your position as Patriarch can almost be given to this Duan Ling Tian! In the future, the Ye Clan can just change its name to the Duan Clan, and all the members of the Ye Clan can change their surname to Duan."
Chen An's words caused Ye Ting's expression to become extremely unsightly.
